Product Description
The efina T offers a choice of three different print format selections. With a quick turn of the lever, the photographer can select the desired picture format from "C" (2: 3), "H" (9: 16), or "P" (1: 3) to best match their subject or situation. (C-Classic, H-High Definition TV, P-Panorama). To keep accurate track of memories, the user can imprint the date or time the photo was taken on the print. For special occasions, the user can even add one of the 31 prerecorded titles in 12 different languages. The date and titles are imprinted on the back of the print, so as not to interfere with the image pictured on the front. To ensure the highest possible quality in the finished prints, the efina T PQI (Print Quality Improvement) feature automatically records the brightness value of the scene, the use or absence of flash illumination and the direction of film advance onto the magnetic coating on the back of each frame.

5 out of 5 stars Pentax Efina T   July 27, 2000
28 out of 28 found this review helpful

Pleasantly surprised at all the features packed in to this little, easy to use camera. Most importantly I am very impressed by the quality of the photos. This is my first aps camera and was not expecting very sharp pictures. Surprised and peased to say the pictures are great so far. Was deciding between the new Pentax or a Canon Elph 2. The Pentax is metal just like the Canon and has a 3x zoom lens for basically the same price. Very happy with my decision.

P.S. The photo on this web site is not the Efina T but rather the original Efina camera. The "T" looks different.


5 out of 5 stars Great APS Camera   June 13, 2000

This is a great APS camera. Compact, light, feature-filled, and aesthetically appealing. I was also comparing the Minolta Vectis 300, as well as the Canon Elph line. What sold me was the power of the zoom on the Pentax. It has a 3x zoom, and although the Vectis 300 also has a 3x zoom; seeing first-hand, I felt the Pentax's zoom was a little better. Feature-wise, the Pentax lacks nothing to its competitors. Also, the feel of the camera is superb. Very lightweight and compact; easy enough to holster on belt or slip into pocket. To compare, I have a StarTac cellular phone, and the Pentax and StarTac are nearly identical in size!!! How's that for a compact, powerful, feature-pack APS camera...I would definitely recommend to all.


4 out of 5 stars Very very good camera   July 11, 2002

I have never had a single problem with this camera or ever lost a photo for any reason in three years of use. Highly recommended for APS pocket camera users and travelers. But be alert to setting the settings correctly though this does not cause failure. The red eye does not work very well but that is the only fault.

Go to Pentax website for a picture of the Efina T. Also, it's range is 23-69mm ("equivalent" to a 35mm's 29-87mm range). Considering a purchase...forced to rate product without ever using it.
